La friction au gant de crin (planche au lavis et au trait) (The Massage with Coarse Hair Glove) (Wash and Line plate)

Jean-Louis Forain

National Gallery of Art

The image displays two figures. One person is standing and leaning against a large piece of furniture with their head resting on their arms. They appear nude with their back facing the viewer. The second person is standing to the left, wearing a long dress with a voluminous upper half and an apron. Their head is slightly lowered. Minimal background details are visible, and the artwork uses sepia tones.
